Our existential threat may not be AI, climate change, nor nuclear weapons, rather humans adding more complexity to the world than we can effectively manage. It already led to the collapse of every advanced society thus far.

We are adding complexity so fast that manual strategy cognition with 86 billion neurons and 100 trillion connections is not keeping up. Our AI journey has accelerated this. AI-assisted strategy cognition may be our best chance to keep up, achieve our goals, and address our societal challenges.

This is a discussion about the complex intersection of AI, the brain, strategy, and human society. – Tim Kilpatrick
